should the project/package name be `prometheus-client` rather than `prometheus_client`

Hey.

I stumbled over the question what to use when one specifies the Prometheus Client as a dependency= in pyproject.toml?

• you guys seem to use prometheus_client (underscore)
  https://github.com/prometheus/client_python/blob/46eae7bae88f76951f7246d9f359f2dd5eeff110/pyproject.toml#L6C9-L6C26
• PyPi seems to use prometheus-client (i.e. when one enters the URL with underscore, it forwards to the one with hyphen)

The actual package build/installation seems to work with both names.

For me the whole Python packaging standard are like big mess ^^... but, if I understand correctly the following possibly means:

The name should be lowercased with all runs of the characters ., -, or _ replaced with a single - character.

that the name should be with hypen.

So maybe that should be changed in pyproject.toml and many other places like e.g.:

• https://github.com/prometheus/client_python/blob/46eae7bae88f76951f7246d9f359f2dd5eeff110/README.md?plain=1#L8
• https://github.com/prometheus/client_python/blob/46eae7bae88f76951f7246d9f359f2dd5eeff110/pyproject.toml#L49
• https://github.com/prometheus/client_python/blob/46eae7bae88f76951f7246d9f359f2dd5eeff110/README.md?plain=1#L20

and perhaps more in tox.ini and mypy.ini?

Cheers,
Chris.

Bắt đầu với các mục được tham chiếu trong pyproject.toml và README.md, sau đó tìm các tham chiếu đến project-name trong tox.ini, mypy.ini và kho lưu trữ. Kiểm tra hướng dẫn chuẩn hóa tên của Python packaging trước khi quyết định cách viết nào sẽ là dạng chuẩn. Được xem là hoàn tất khi tên đã chọn được sử dụng nhất quán và package vẫn build và cài đặt thành công.
